What are the different effects of different textures of thermal label paper?

Thermal label paper with different textures is mainly different in its physical characteristics, application scenarios and printing effects. These differences are mainly reflected in the type of backing paper, coating formulation, and the flatness and strength of the paper. The following is a detailed analysis of the effect of different textured thermal label paper:

1. Type of backing paper

Glasin bottom paper: Glasin bottom paper is specially designed for high-speed web printing die-cutting and automatic labeling, die-cutting processing performance is excellent, with good thickness and light transmission. It has a variety of colors to choose from, such as white, blue, yellow, etc., but white and blue are more common in thermal paper. Glasin base paper is suitable for situations requiring fast and accurate labeling, such as labeling applications on automated production lines.

White heavy backing paper: White heavy backing paper has excellent flatness and is suitable for flat sheet applications. When die-cutting on flat pressing or circular pressing equipment, it shows good strength and can ensure that the label is not easily damaged during the die-cutting process. Therefore, the white thick bottom thermal label paper is more suitable for label applications that require high precision die-cutting and flatness requirements.

2. Physical features and application scenarios

Flatness and strength: Different textures of heat-sensitive label paper differ in flatness and strength. Glaxin paper usually shows high strength because of its excellent die-cutting performance. The white thick base paper is known for its excellent flatness. These characteristics make them suitable for different application scenarios, such as Glasin paper is more suitable for automated production lines, and white thick paper is more suitable for label applications requiring high precision die-cutting.

Waterproof, oil resistant and durable: In addition to the type of backing paper, the coating formula of thermal label paper also affects its physical properties. For example, three heat-resistant paper (waterproof, oil-resistant, scratch-resistant) achieves these properties by applying a second protective layer on top of the heat-sensitive hair color layer. This thermal paper is suitable for scenarios that require high durability, such as outdoor environments or labels that require long-term storage.

3. Print effect

Print clarity: The printing effect of thermal label paper is affected by its coating uniformity and chemical formulation. The evenly coated label paper can ensure that the color is uniform and clear when printing; The uneven coating of the label paper may lead to a decline in print quality and different shades of color.

Print head wear: The highly sensitive surface of thermal label paper is suitable for low voltage print heads, so the wear on the print head is minimal. This feature helps extend the life of the printer and reduce maintenance costs.

Sum up

Thermal label paper with different textures has differences in the type of backing paper, physical characteristics, application scenarios and printing effects. The selection of the appropriate thermal label paper needs to be determined according to the specific application needs, including the die-cutting processing performance of the label, flatness requirements, durability requirements and printing effects. At the same time, it is also necessary to pay attention to the quality of the label paper and the reputation of the manufacturer to ensure that the selected label paper can meet the actual needs and has a good use effect.
